Gear Blanks, Forged in Die - Forged Gears (Spur Gears, Pinions, Bevel Gears)

Gears are mechanical components and an essential part of many machines, used in applications ranging from piston engines to gearbox construction, agricultural machinery, and wind turbines. The choice of the right type of gear depends on the specific application. Here are some of the most important types of gears: - Spur gears/pinion: these gears have straight teeth and are the most common. They transmit rotational motion parallel to the axis and can be found in gearboxes, clocks, and machines. - Bevel gears: these gears have conical teeth and transmit motion between non-parallel axes. They are used in vehicle differentials and industrial machines. - Worm gears: this combination of a worm and worm wheel allows for high gear ratios and is used in hoists, conveyor belts, and other applications.
